I have reviewed the document draft-ietf-intarea-rfc8335bis and found it
very complete, comprehensive, well written, and a potentially very useful
operational option. I support publication of this document.

A few notes, feel free to adjust or ignore:

I know what you're going for here, but I found this a bit hard to digest. I
had to read it a few times.
`The probed interface can reside on or directly connect to the proxy node.`
Maybe
`The probed interface can reside on or be directly connected to the proxy
node.`

Section 9.
Suggest extending the section
```
PROBE must not leak information about one Virtual Private Network
(VPN) into another.  Therefore, when a node receives an ICMP Extended
Echo Request and the proxy interface is in a different VPN than the
probed interface, the node MUST return an ICMP Extended Echo Reply
with error code equal to (2) No Such Interface.

```
to include virtual systems / vsys / logical systems and perhaps
containerization where a given software based, logical separation may
require different security postures.
Perhaps
```
PROBE must not leak information about one Virtual Private Network (VPN),
logical system, or other software partitioned interface or set of interfaces
into another.  Therefore, when a node receives an ICMP Extended
Echo Request and the proxy interface is in a different VPN than the
probed interface, the node MUST return an ICMP Extended Echo Reply
with error code equal to (2) No Such Interface.

```
